Boots Of The Match: Neymar Leads Brasil To Opening Day Win

The wait is over as the 2014 FIFA World Cup is fully underway (Thank you BasedGod). We kick-off this World Cup edition of #BootsOfTheMatch with the Opener between host country Brasil and Croatia. After a shaky start from Brasil, Neymar was able to drop a deuce (as in score 2 goals for you dirty minds) and lead his country to an opening day victory. Laced up in the Hypervenoms, Nike is celebrating up in their HQ that their lead man seems as if he'll do a repeat of the Confederations Cup last year. Hopefully this turns into a goal scoring war between Messi (adidas) vs Neymar (Nike), because that'll be too dope.

As for the rest of the boot world, Julio Cesar opted for Nike HyperVenoms after trying out the Tiempos and Magistas in earlier friendlies, Marcelo scores his first World Cup goal* in the adidas F50 adizero "battle pack", Modric laces up in the Nike Mercurial Vapor X, Hulk wore the Mizuno Morelia Neo, and much more.

NEYMAR GOLDEN DREAM NIKE HYPERVENOM FIRST LOOK

Using the same gold color as the special Cristiano Ronaldo 2014 White / Gold Boot, the shiny gold upper of the Neymar 2014 World Cup Boot will stand out on the pitch. The Metallic Gold color will shine on the pitch to offer Neymar a bold look.

The volt Nike Swoosh is the same used for all Nike 2014 World Cup Boots, while the iconic Nike Swoosh also features gold details inspired by the glory of winning the 2014 World Cup. Like the Swoosh, the outsole and the inner sole of the 'Golden Dream' Neymar 2014 World Cup Cleat are volt with black applications.

Nike will release the new gold Neymar 2014 World Cup Boot during the 2014 World Cup. Neymar currently plays with the normal colorway of the Nike Hypervenom 2014 World Cup Football Boot and will switch to his Golden Dream boot soon.

The Neymar 'Golden Dream' 2014 World Cup Boot will be available from June 21, 2014 and retails at the same price as the normal Nike Hypervenom Colorway.

Boots Of The Match: Suarez Makes History In adidas F50 adizero "Earth Pack"

It didn't take long for Liverpool to see their title hopes fade away. In fact, it only took 15 minutes for Crystal Palace to draw level from 3 goals down. Aside from this disappointing point Liverpool took, Suarez managed to stay in-form, netting his 31st goal this season (ties Premier League Single-Season Goals Record). Switching between numerous boot models this season, the Uruguayan forward has enjoyed this most recent individual success in the adidas F50 adizero "earth pack". In addition, the dotted socks which are seen on Suarez are Trusox, which is what he usually prefers to wear.
